Here's something I use to warm up on E9th and I normally palm block it. I've got a neat beginner E9th tab and a few neat things I picked up from Chalker on the Wilburn brothers show and a few "C6th on E9th " tabs left to post this week so stay tuned.


Hear Tab 630


Tab 630 in pdf format





My web site featuring over 450 tabs and 132 songs all with audio files for E9/C6 pedal steel, 12 string lap steel and 6 string lap steel.

Thanks Greg. We really appreciate all the info you share here.

One small correction:
A note is missing from your tab, that is on the recording.

There should be a G on the 8th string, after the sixth string pedal release.

Happy 2010!

Joey, I patched this up!

I was missing the note you mentioned (actually I typed the "3" onto the wrong string) plus I was missing the pedal B action on string 6 after that. Thanks for finding that and thanks for WMP slowing it down to 50% so I could figure out exactly what I played.

Hey Greg, what right-hand fingering do you use for this exercise?

Bryan,
I wondered about that too.
Here's what works best for me:



Some would debate my excessive use of the thumb.

Lookin forward to Greg's response...

Without looking Joey's response, I went and played it and got the same sequence every time. My results are posted above.

I can play it just as well by replacing the Index finger with the Middle finger. Somedays I can play faster with the Index and other days the Middle finger is faster. Either way it's much easier for me use the thumb thumb sequence a lot. Not a big deal but if you REALLY speed it up from what I played it, my fingering approach would possibly not be as good. At that point I would go to all three fingers or the crossover technique or pick blocking.
